SURABAYA - Mayor of Surabaya Eri Cahyadi has coordinated with the Surabaya Police regarding cases of dog slaughter in his area. This is because the owner of the dog slaughter violated PP No. 95 of 2019.
"If there is a slaughterhouse or dog slaughterhouse, then it is not according to the rules. I have coordinated with the Surabaya Police Station regarding this," said Eri Cahyadi in Surabaya, Tuesday, August 2.
In addition to violating PP number 95 of 2019, Eri also said that the dog slaughterhouse disturbed the order of the surrounding community. Eri Cahyadi emphasized that animal slaughter is only allowed at the abattoir that is already available.
"There are only a few types of livestock that can be slaughtered. The slaughter must also be monitored, and dogs are not one of them," he said.
According to Eri Cahyadi, this case is a common problem that must be eradicated. He assessed that the problem was not only a problem for the Surabaya City Government to improve the welfare of the people with low-income families.
"This is not an economic problem, yes, because it goes back to humans. If bad qualities are violated, this kind of soul must be accompanied. Government socialization should not be tired," he said.
Previously, the Dog slaughterhouse was raided in the city of Surabaya. The chronology of the raid began when the Hope Center Animal Lovers Community, Christian Joshua Pale received information from a follower on social media.
Based on this information, the slaughterhouse on Jalan Pesapen, Sumur Welut, Lakarsantri, Surabaya has been operating for decades. They started an investigation.
"I tried to reinvestigate in Surabaya for a week. Finally I found one in Pesapen," he said.
The investigation began with Joshua pretending to be buying processed dog meat from the butcher. He also knew that the price of dog meat was sold at Rp. 25,000 per kilogram. "I went undercover to buy it," he said.
Joshua also came to the slaughterhouse. After confirming the address, he immediately reported his findings to the Lakarsantri Police. The report was received by the Surabaya Polrestabes and received with the number LP/B/862/VII/2022/SPKT/POLRESTABES SURABAYA/EAST JAVA POLDA.
